Shadowland Theatre

Dedicated
to high-quality, professionally produced plays and musicals,
Shadowland is located in the charming village of
Ellenville, in Ulster County NY. Ellenville is 100 miles from New York
City,
in a picturesque and narrow valley between the
Shawangunk Mountains to the east and the Catskill Mountains to the west.

Shadowland
performs in its own building, which first opened on
July 3, 1920, as an art-deco movie and vaudeville house. Substantial
renovations
in recent years have completely rebuilt the interior
of the old theatre, retaining the art-deco features while creating a
tiered, 148 seat, and intimate semi-thrust stage. All
seats are within 25 feet of the stage and have clear sightlines in the
technically well-equipped and acoustically outstanding
space. Other improvement include a new inner lobby, restoration of
the outer lobby, new lighting grid, all new sound
equipment and control booth and refurbished dressing rooms.

Shadowland
Theatre was founded as an outgrowth of Cooperative
Artists, a collective of 35 theatre artists working together in New York
City in the early to mid-1980s. The members of
Cooperative Artists led by Ron Marquette moved en masse to Ellenville in
1984-85
when the vacant, art-deco Shadowland Theatre building
was made available to the group as a home base. After two seasons under
the banner of Cooperative Artists, the company was
restructured and incorporated as a non-profit theatre company governed
by an elected community Board of Directors. It’s
located at 157 Canal St. Ellenville, New York 12428.

Library & Museum is to provide resources, services and public

school
district library. Begun with a collection of some
1,000 books, the library has grown in size and stature, serving today as
the informational and cultural center of our
community. It’s located at 40 Center Street, Ellenville NY 12428.

Sam's Point Preserve

Sam's Point
Preserve, or Sam's Point Dwarf Pine Ridge Preserve, is a 4,600-acre
(19 km²) preserve in Ulster County on the highest
point (2,289 feet/697 m, on the Ellenville / Shawangunk border) of
the Shawangunk Ridge in New York. It is owned by the
Open Space Institute and managed by The Nature Conservancy. Its unique
environment features dwarf pine trees along the ridge
top. Located within the park is Lake Maratanza, the highest lake on
the ridge, and the Ellenville Fault Ice Caves. The
name derives from a story that a man named Sam, pursued by Indians,
jumped
off the cliff to avoid capture and miraculously
survived the drop. Roads throughout the preserve were built as fire
roads
in the 1930s by the Civilian Conservation Corps.

The
land was once owned by the nearby village
of Ellenville to protect its watershed and partly by a
company which offered tours of the ice caves. The Open Space Institute,
working with The Nature Conservancy bought it with
assistance from the Lila Acheson and Dewitt Wallace Fund for the Hudson
Highlands, after the village considered selling the
land to developers. In 2005, the Preserve opened the Sam’s Point
Conservation Center with education facilities,
exhibits and a gift shop. A parking fee of $10 per vehicle is charged.

The
Ellenville Fault Ice Caves is the largest known open
fault in the United States with corresponding ice caves. As a result
of the cool microclimate, ice is present throughout
the year and more northern plants such as black spruce, hemlock,
mountain
ash, and creeping snowberry, and bryophytes such as
isopterygium distichaceum are able to survive. It was designated a
National
Natural Landmark in November 1967.There are hiking
trails to the ice caves which are open in the summer.

Peter's Market

Peters
Market
is a family owned and operated supermarket entering
its 40th year in Business. Much has changed since 1971, but our goal
remains
the same: Genuine Customer Service, High Quality
Products – including the Freshest Meats, Produce, Deli and Bakery –
Good Prices and Great Values.

Peters
Market has chugged along through eight
presidencies, the collapse of the Soviet Union, wars
from Vietnam to Afghanistan, gas lines, factory closings and economic
ups and downs.

One
signature section of the store is the Natural and Organic Department,
which was introduced by Pat Peters in the early 1980s.
Having struggled for years with an illness related to diet, Pat
concentrated
on special diet foods, products without yeast, gluten,
dairy and sugar. And she integrated them with the regular store
products
in each department with an identifying green "natural
and organic products" sign. The intent was to introduce these
products to the everyday customer. It’s located at
7700 Rte 209 Napanoch, NY 12458
